Bookshelf, comic long box and magazine rack

Besides the usual grid of covers, each type has its own piece of furniture:

• Books → Bookshelf. Your books, spine out, on shelves. The spine color comes from the cover and the title runs vertically.
• Comics → Long box. Like a comic shop long box: each series with its orange divider and the issues in a row, showing the top of each cover.
• Magazines → Magazine rack. For each magazine, the latest issue in front and the older ones peeking out behind, like at a newsstand.

How to choose

In Settings › Library style you pick the look of each type separately: you can have comics in a long box and books as a grid, for example. It's free.

It applies to this device's library, your clouds and "Your shelf" on Home.

How to use it

• Books: one tap pulls the book off the shelf and shows its cover, with the title and author below; another tap (or Open) opens it. Long-press for the book's options.
• Comics: one tap lifts the issue out of the box and shows the whole cover; another tap opens it. If a series has many issues, you'll see the first ones and a strip to see the whole series.
• Magazines: one tap fans out the three latest issues; tap the one you want to read. See all takes you to the magazine with all its issues.

On Boox, Kobo and other e-ink readers

There you always get the grid: on e-ink, shadows and animations look bad and use up screen refreshes. That's why the setting doesn't show up on those devices.
